Simon Cowell's teeth are alarmingly white

Simon Cowell is reported to have ordered the final 12 contestants on The X Factor to have their teeth whitened.

The judge, 48, is said to have sent all the singers to Pearlys clinic in Primrose Hill, North London to ensure they all have beaming smiles.

‘Simon wants the acts to looks their best once the live stages start,’ a source tells The Daily Star. ‘He is convinced they will all look better with perfectly white teeth as part of the makeover.'
